Is it December already?!

Wow, It's crazy how busy one baby can make someone! It's all about SJ around here! Shaun and I are loving every minute of it. Our first few months with him were rough since Shaun was working out of town, i'm really not even sure how we did it? SJ spent more time in hotels/cabin in Illinois/Iowa than at home for his first 3 months. It definately would have been easier at home, but all the travel made for some good memories.

SJ is one big, happy baby. He is now 7 months old and on the move! I don't quite have to chase him around and keep him out of things yet, but he is getting quicker everyday. Him and I spend our weekdays playing with another little boy I have been watching for a few weeks, which is going very well :).

We had a very happy Thanksgiving, probably the happiest actually! It was SJ's first real experience feeding himself, and he LOVED it! He had a little, well, a lot of everything...including dessert. It was by far the most food he has eatin at one time. We ended up doing a little Christmas shopping for SJ Thursday night and sleeping at my parents' house, which turned out to be a huge mistake. We came home to a flooded master bathroom Friday morning. We had ruined bathroom floors, and soaked carpet in the master bedroom and living room. We spent the rest of our Thanksgiving break laying down new tile. Well, my very handy husband did most of that work, actually. I was in charge of drying carpets ...fun fun! Shaun did an amazing job, our new floor looks beautiful!

To my surprise, we even found time to pick out a Christmas tree on Sunday. We are pretty excited to start stuffing presents under there!
